Read detailed itinerary of Kailash Mansarovar Dharchula to Lipulekh Pass road, here: footloosedev.c...
This video is a part of my entire Kailash Mansarovar journey. In this vlog, I rode my motorcycle on the Kailash Mansarovar Dharchula to Lipulekh Pass road's first point called Chiyalekh.
Please note that Chiyalekh is not a lake but the steep climb after Budhi.
The Kailash Mansarovar Road (to the last point Lipulekh Pass) is a 4-day journey. Meaning, at least 4 vlogs. And if each of those vlogs includes only half day's story, 8 vlogs in total. Consider this one 1 of those 8. This is half-day story of Day 1.
Again, for a detailed itinerary, check the blog I have written about this place, including the itinerary, with estimated distances like Dharchula to Chialekh, Chialekh to Gunji village and then to Liplekh Pass: footloosedev.c...

In this journey. I rode a Jawa 42.
As far as a motorcycle trip from Dharchula to Lipulekh Pass, on Kailash Mansarovar road is concerned, I suggest you ride something that is quick and nimble. For me, for example, my Jawa 42 was a perfect choice. Its lightweight body, powered by a 300cc and a 28 N.m @5000 rpm of torque generated enough power to easily climb uphill.
We had other motorcycles like the Royal Enfield Classic 350 (that I've always found too bulkier and heavier for such terrains, including Ladakh and Spiti Valley), a Hero XPulse and a Royal Enfield Himalayan on Kailash Mansarovar Yatra Marg Road, and I found my Jawa 42 doing better than all of them thanks to its great power output.
Having said that, as long as your motorcycle has a great power output and is not too heavy, given its engine size, you should do good on those roads. It's not necessary to have a big engine (a 300 cc should do fine) but have enough torque to be able to pull you through.
